-LGBT activists criticized a first-of-its-kind Alabama that makes illegal the practice of giving children sex change treatments, and punishes offenders with up to ten years in prison.
-Several groups claimed the banned procedures, which include castration and genital reconstruction, were life-saving treatments for transgender children.
-One activist said banning sex-change treatments for kids would cause a shortage of doctors in the state and hurt the economy.
LGBT organizations slammed an Alabama law signed Friday that criminalizes administering medical sex change treatments to children.
The legislation, which was signed by Republican Gov. Kay Ivey late Friday, bans medical sex change interventions for children ranging from puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to mastectomies, castration, vasectomies, hysterectomies and cosmetic genital surgeries.
“Shame on the cruel, heartless, and power-hungry state legislators that want to take away life-saving medical care from transgender youth in Alabama,” Carl Charles, senior attorney for Lambda Legal, said in a statement. “We are ready to use the full force of the law to come down on this clearly unconstitutional legislation should it come to pass.”
Practitioners who violate the law could be charged with Class C felonies, which carry a penalty of up to 10 years in prison. The law makes exceptions for medical interventions related to medically verifiable sex conditions such as chromosome irregularities.

‘A hill to die on...’
That’s acceptable.
Also known as child mutilation.
Their choice...
I was certain that this was satire at first.
But, sadly, it’s not.
At least I don’t think so. It’s tough to tell anymore...
Much more than satire. Biden is threatening these states that want to prohibit sexually mutilating children...
Can’t they die from a roof top instead?
Let them.

Its in the deep-state’s neo-marxist ideology to spread this utopia around the world.
Obsession with something ends that way logic doesn’t.
You cannot counsel children who do not want to be homosexual, but you can castrate children who do not want to be the sex they were born.
Child Sex Change Treatments Are A Hill Some LGBT Activists Are Willing To Die On to save their mission of grooming of every child that enters a classroom.
Banning child mutilation is unconstitutional? How does a person have any credibility after spewing that?
It’s almost like it’s a status symbol on the left to have a child that is sexually confused.

Their new motto is
Ask not what you can do for your children
Ask what your children can do for you
They don’t love kids, they love tropheys.
It’s this kind of stuff that makes more traditional countries NOT want to emulate our culture.
In Illinois a minor can not get a sun tan, but they want to allow minors to get a sex change. Even without parents permission.
Well, go right ahead. Can a mail you a razor?
